Design of a Dual-Band Chip Antenna Using a Gap-Fed Branch

초록

Dual-band chip antennas usually have a narrow bandwidth in the first resonance frequency band due to an inter-coupling capacitance. In order to analyze the effect of the inter-coupling capacitance, an equivalent circuit of an antenna with a branch radiator is considered in this paper. Based on the equivalent circuit model, it is found that the inter-coupling capacitance reduces impedance bandwidth. This paper proposes a gap feeding method to alleviate the effect of the inter-coupling capacitance and explains it using an equivalent circuit.
